This demi-sec (semi-sweet) wine offers a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity, creating a delightful drinking experience.

The sweetness of the wine is beautifully balanced by vibrant acidity, creating a refreshing and well-rounded taste. The Clos du Bourg Vouvrayhas a long and mineral-driven finish, leaving a lingering impression of its exquisite flavors.
